Chapter 0867: The Situation Begins to Clear

When is it, Kou Ji still has the heart to joke?

Don't look at the occasion either.

Gao Chu Gong and others dare to be angry but dare not speak.

Kou Ji coughed lightly, relieved the embarrassment, and then said with a straight face: "I thought about it carefully for a long time, and I feel that if we sit still, we will be a little passive.

So I want to strike ahead of time and nip the danger in the cradle.

How much do you think it's feasible? ”

Gao Chu Gong and the others heard Kou Ji's words, and they were all stunned for a moment.

Chong Shiheng groaned, "How does Kou Shumi's plan to attack? ”

Kou Ji said solemnly: "Use the Great Wall as a stronghold and send cavalry out to exterminate and drive away those murderers. Put pressure on them to think we're not easy to mess with and avoid us.

Then send iron cavalry to attack Baili to divide the murderers who invaded a hundred miles outside the territory of our Great Song Dynasty.

In this way, the pressure on us will be drastically reduced.

The murderers were only a few people and tribesmen of various small tribes.

The number looks strong, but the strength itself is not strong.

Unless the murderers elect a leader and twist it into a rope against us.

Otherwise, they would not have been able to leave behind the soldiers and horses we had sent.

We can attack, retreat and defend, and the initiative is in our hands.

In this way, we will have a much greater chance of resisting the large-scale southern invasion of the murderers. ”

Chong Shiheng and the others heard Kou Ji's words and fell into deep thought.

They felt that the strategy and tactics proposed by Koji could also be a way to weaken the enemy.

They were considering the feasibility of the strategy and tactics proposed by Kou Ji, and how much benefit the Great Song would gain after implementing the strategy and tactics proposed by Kou Ji.

A few people thought about it for a long time.

Li Zhaoliang suddenly spoke, "The blind killing has forced them to be anxious, will they unite to deal with us?" ”

Chong Shiheng and the others nodded and looked at Kou Ji.

They thought about the same as Li Zhaoliang and had the same concerns.

Kou Ji said bluntly: "I have thought about this problem carefully, it is indeed inappropriate to blindly kill, it is easy to drive them to a corner." So I want to pull a batch, hit a batch. ”

Chong Shiheng and the others were speechless, staring at Kou Jijing and waiting for the following.

Kou Ji continued: "After we send people out, we can properly recruit some of them who are obedient. As long as they can occupy a city, and in the name of offering the city, surrender to my Great Song.

Then we can consider providing them with some shelter and some food.

If they are deferential enough and have meritorious service to my Great Song Dynasty, it is not impossible for them to be officials.

Those who disobeyed, or tried to negotiate terms with us, we exterminated them. ”

Chong Shiheng and the others raised their eyebrows.

Someone couldn't help but speak: "Kou Shumi's order to give them an official?" ”

Kou Ji asked, "Can't you?" If they vote for my Great Song, they will be the captives of my Great Song. If they can contribute to our Great Song Dynasty, they can get out of captivity and become a Song person.

After becoming a Song person, if you make meritorious contributions, you can naturally make an official and a knight.

This is how the Great Song Dynasty treats the captives now, and the same government decrees are implemented.

Isn't it out of order? ”

Chong Shiheng and the others glanced at each other, muttered, and did not speak.

If Koji's proposal is successful, it will be of great benefit to them in their war against the murderers.

They were only resistant to outsiders serving as officials of the Great Song Dynasty.

Their creed is that 'if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different.'

Unless outsiders are completely integrated into the Great Song Dynasty, just like a happy person in Bianjing City, and completely become a part of the Great Song Dynasty, it will be difficult for them to be recognized.

Kou Ji saw their thoughts, and said in a deep voice, "If you have other ways to weaken the murderer, or annihilate the murderer, I can retract what I just said. ”

When Chong Shiheng and the others heard this, they were silent.

The murderers are huge, and if they were really easy to solve, they wouldn't be gathered here.

Seeing that they didn't speak, Kou Ji knew that they couldn't solve it, so he immediately ordered: "Since there is no objection, then do as I tell you."

Di Qing led the army to sit in Yuguan.

Chong Shiheng led the army to sit in Gubeikou.

Gao Chu Gong and Li Zhaoliang jointly sat on the Great Wall from Gubeikou to Linzhou.

Wang Kai worked hard and went to the Great Wall from Linzhou to Hexikou. ”

Chong Shiheng and the others got up, saluted Kou Ji together, and agreed.

According to Kou Ji's distribution, the distance between Di Qing and Chong Shiheng was the shortest.

The Great Wall where Wang Kai sits is the longest.

But Di Qing and Chong Shiheng have the most pressure to face.

Wang Kai is the one with the least pressure.

The murderers have already wreaked havoc outside the Great Wall in Yuguan and Gubeikou, and outside the Great Wall on the line from Yinzhou to Hexikou, there is no trace of half of the murderers.

It can be seen that Yuguan and Gubeikou are the passes that the murderers then focused on.

After Kou Ji finished assigning the task, he ordered Di Qing and the others to immediately rush to the place where he was seated.

When Di Qing left, he took away the three local soldiers in the Gubei Pass.

When Gao Di Gong left, he took away a forbidden army and a local soldier in the Gubei Pass.

The strength of Gubeikou was sharply reduced.

The soldiers were finally able to move to live in Gubeikou.

Chong Shiheng led the soldiers to repair the Great Wall while cleaning up the murderers who emerged outside the Gubei Pass.

After Di Qing and the others returned to their respective places, they couldn't wait to take action.

For a time, outside the Great Wall, the iron horses of the Great Song Dynasty were all in the vertical and horizontal.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were slashed outside the pass.

The thugs who came out of the gate were pressed back.

The murderous people gave up peeping at Da Song for a short time and set their sights on other places.

Gubeikou.

on the city walls.

After inspecting the outside of the city, Kou Ji turned his head to the side and said to the kind of Shiheng next to him: "What you are doing is very dangerous. ”

Chong Shiheng stood beside Kou Ji, staring at the Great Song Iron Rider who was riding a horse outside the city, without saying a word.

Kou Ji frowned, "In half a month, you have defeated as many as 100 murderers, and destroyed as many as 100,000 murderers. But not a single captive saw it.

Not only did I not see the captives, but someone actually gave me a view of Beijing. ”

Chong Shiheng said in a deep voice: "We also ordered our soldiers and horses to surrender the murderers, but the murderers refused to surrender, so according to your orders, we can only annihilate them all."

As for the Zhujing Temple, it is just to deter those murderers.

As far as I know, after Jingguan was cast, the effect was very intuitive, and there were more than 20 murderers, who were frightened by Jingguan and did not dare to show their heads. ”

Kou Ji glared, questioned Chong Shiheng, and said, "Are you an idiot for me?" The murderers evolved from the people, not from the dead.

Hundreds of thousands, not a single one willing to surrender.

The consciousness of the people of Liao is actually so high. ”

As soon as Chong Shiheng was about to open his mouth to defend himself, he heard Kou Ji scold: "If the people of Liao really have this kind of consciousness of sacrificing their lives for the country, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu will not defeat Youzhou City."

It is clear that you are unwilling to accept prisoners, so you deliberately killed all the murderers you encountered.

Do you know that your move is to tell the murderers that my Great Song will not give them any way to live, and as long as they oppose my Great Song, they will be driven out and exterminated.

You also told them that if you want to invade our Great Song Dynasty, you should gather 100,000 people and come again.

You're forcing them to go to a dead end, forcing them to die with us.

They rot their lives, they lose, there won't be much to lose.

We are different, our family has a big business, and once it is lost, the thousands of people behind us will be implicated. ”

The more Kou Ji talked, the more angry he became, and at the end he scolded, "And that idiot from Gao Chu Gong, who actually cast a Jingguan for me?!" Who allowed him to cast the Jingguan?

Who gave him the courage to cast Jingguan?

What's even more infuriating is that you didn't stop it after you found out about it?

How the hundreds of thousands of people outside the Yumen Pass died, you won't be unclear.

If the plague is caused because of the reckless behavior of the high place, who will be responsible at that time?

Outside the Great Wall, millions of people are now in turmoil.

Once a plague occurs, it has the potential to infect millions of people in a very short period of time.

Millions of people who were infected with the plague flocked to my Great Song together, and my Great Song had to follow suit. ”

When Chong Shiheng heard the word plague, his pupils shrank slightly.

He had seen firsthand the horror of the plague and knew how quickly it spread when people were infected.

He also knows that the plague harvests human life, and he hardly makes any sense.

If it was true that millions of people were infected with the plague, if they really flocked to the Great Song Dynasty together.

That Da Song really has to suffer.

Kouji said that once the plague was born, millions of people would be infected, which sounded a bit exaggerated.

But Chong Shiheng did not doubt it.

If there is a plague, millions of people may not be able to stop it.

The assailants outside the Great Wall do not have a unified organization, they are a group of unorganized and undisciplined bandits, wandering around.

Once someone is infected with the plague, it will definitely be transmitted to others in the process of wandering.

And the unorganized and undisciplined murderers also led to the fact that once there was a large-scale outbreak of the plague, no one would go back to control it.

In this way, the plague can naturally spread unscrupulously among the murderers.

After the murderers were infected with the plague, their thoughts of invading the Great Song Dynasty would become even stronger.

Because they will definitely feel that if they stay in Liao, they will definitely die, and only by entering the Great Song Dynasty can they have a glimmer of life.

Chong Shiheng hesitated and said, "Plague...... It shouldn't be that easy, right? ”

Kou Ji stared at Chong Shiheng coldly, "How many people have died on the battlefield of Yumen Pass?" How many more livestock, wild beasts? How many people have died in the territory of Liao, and how many livestock and beasts have died?

Your soldiers and horses are outside, won't they tell you what they see outside? ”

Chong Shiheng's face was a little ugly.

Kou Ji said coldly: "It's not an exaggeration to describe it as a thousand miles of red land, and corpses are all over the field, right?" ”

Chong Shiheng hesitated for a moment, but nodded stiffly.

Everywhere the murderers passed, they had eaten everything they could eat, and only the corpses were left.

This is now known on the Great Wall.

Kou Ji continued: "In my Great Song Dynasty, a flood may breed a plague. Do you think that the territory of Liao is thousands of miles of red land and corpses are everywhere, and there is no plague breeding? ”

Chong Shiheng hesitated for a moment and did not speak.

Kou Ji said in a deep voice: "I know my words may be a bit exaggerated, but I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case." If we don't prevent it from happening, we will be at a loss.

All we can do when the time comes is to watch one after another the people we want to protect die in front of us. ”

Kou Ji pointed in the direction where Gao Ji was sitting and shouted, "So you go tell that idiot, and by the way, tell the others." To kill, the body must be cremated.

Even if I don't have time to burn the corpses, I have to dig a pit and bury them.

Not only do we need to burn the corpses we kill, but we also have to burn the corpses that others kill.

I don't care how you fight, and I won't interfere.

But I'll oversee this to the end.

Tell them that there is no such thing as a fluke.

Since the official family has given me authority, I dare to kill no matter how big the official is. ”

Hearing Kou Ji's murderous words, Chong Shiheng knew that Kou Ji was not joking, and he said in a deep voice: "I will send someone to convey your orders truthfully." ”

The cold color on Kou Ji's face narrowed a little, and he stared at Chong Shiheng and said, "There are ...... When you can take more prisoners, take more of them.

The reason why I allowed the assailants to surrender was not just to solve the scourge of the assailants outside the border.

Part of the reason is for the people of Yanyun Land.

Since we expelled the Liao people from the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, there have been many more borderless lands in the land of Yanyun.

After the imperial court sent officials over to clean up some pests in the sixteen states of Yanyun, there will be more borderless lands in the land of Yanyun.

After a portion of it has been distributed to the people, there is still a lot leftover.

The remaining fertile land can't just be wasted.

Someone needs to go to the farm.

The more captives, the more land you can plant.

The more crops are produced.

The benefits to my Great Song naturally don't need me to say more. ”

Chong Shiheng frowned slightly and said, "Liao people are not good at cultivating fields......

Kou Ji sneered, "The knife is on the neck, and they can all imitate the musket." ”

Chong Shiheng was stunned.

Kou Ji snorted coldly: "They can't, if they're not good at it, let people teach them." Out of ten, one of them will know, and I will earn it in Da Song. ”

Chong Shiheng hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed.

After he got off the top of the wall, he sent someone to quickly convey Kou Ji's order.

As Koji's orders reached everywhere.

The attitude of the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty towards the murderers outside the city also changed.

If you kill someone, you will burn your body, and if someone surrenders, you will accept it.

Just a few days.

At the various passes from Yuguan to Linzhou, tens of thousands of prisoners were captured.

Some of the murderers even took the initiative to run to various passes of the Great Wall and took the initiative to become prisoners of the Great Song Dynasty.

Not for anything else, just to be able to eat a full meal.

Most of them were squeezed out by large-scale murderers.

There are also some who can't eat enough because they rely on looting to make a living, so they take the initiative to take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty.

Kou Ji and the others passed through their mouths and learned some details about the murderers.

After a long period of wreaking havoc, several major forces have risen to prominence.

Now several major forces are attacking cities and plundering land on the border of Liao, devouring other small forces, and constantly strengthening themselves.

In the process of continuous devouring, the leaders of several major forces also formed a short-lived alliance.

They are known as the New Khitan Nine Clans.

Externally, it was announced that it would replace the old Khitan Eight Tribes and become the new upstart of the Liao State.

The five most powerful of them.

They are the Wulie tribe located in Shangjing Province, the Ayan tribe entrenched in Jingnan Province, the Jurchen tribe wandering in the coastal areas, the Tuoba tribe wandering in the eastern section of the northwest road of Liaoguo, and the Changshengjiao who bewitched the people of Liao in the name of God to cause rebellion together.

Among the five major forces, the strongest is the Wulie Division.

The Wulie tribe used to be one of the strongest tribes under the Khitan Eight Tribes.

After the elite soldiers and horses of the Liao State were buried in the sixteen states of Yanyun, the chief of the Wulie tribe saw the opportunity and took the warriors of the Wulie tribe to rebel, and successively sacked thirteen cities in the northwest of Shangjing, plundering a large number of gold and silver treasures, cattle, sheep and horses.

During the civil strife in Liao, more than a dozen small tribes were annexed.

The strength of the tribe has jumped more than a dozen notches.

Now there are more than 300,000 warriors in the Urabe.

The most important thing is that the Wulie tribe was the first of all the rebellious forces to establish regular soldiers and horses.

His name is Uri Iron Rider.

There were 60,000 people.

It is slightly inferior to the Great Song Iron Cavalry, but far stronger than other murderers.

Now the Wulie Department relies on the Wulie Iron Cavalry and is rampant in the territory of Liao.

Previously, he defeated the official army sent by Yelu Zongzhen, and his reputation became famous.

Now it is regarded as the imperial family among the nine tribes of the New Khitan.

The Ayan tribe is a large tribe composed of nine small tribes, and the warriors of the nine tribes together have 150,000 skills.

The people of the Ayan Department didn't know where to dig out the crippled armaments of the former Liao State Tielin Army, and barely pieced together a plausible heavy armored cavalry.

The number is around three hundred.

The combat effectiveness is not weak.

Although it is not as good as the Wulie tribe, it is no problem to bully other small tribes.

What's more, a clan leader of the Ayan tribe is the father-in-law of the head of the Wulie tribe, and he is the first to make peace with the Ayan tribe and the Wulie tribe.

The subsequent New Khitan Nine Clans were also jointly led by the two of them.

In comparison, the Jurchen Department is weaker.

If it weren't for the head of the Jurchen tribe, who absorbed some of the Jurchens, the Jurchens were strong in combat, fearless of life and death, fought a few key victories, and played a little prestige, the Jurchen tribe might not be able to stand out and become one of the new Khitan Nine Clans.

The Tuoba Department is a bit special.

They were established by prisoners who had been killed from Xingqing Mansion and other places.

After the prisoners in Xingqing Mansion and other places were killed out of Xingqing Mansion and other places, some people decisively returned to Xingqing Mansion and other places with Liao people's heads after cutting off their heads.

After Zhao Zhen gave the order to recall.

Most of the prisoners also returned to Xingqing Mansion and other places one after another.

But there are still some people who choose to break away from the Great Song Dynasty, stay in Liaodi, and claim their own kingship and hegemony.

This is where the Tuoba Department came into being.

Today, the Tuoba tribe should be regarded as the tribe with the largest number of people among the nine tribes of the New Khitan.

But the strength is far inferior to the Wulie Ministry, and the background is far inferior to the Ayan Ministry.

Although the Tuoba tribe was the first to cause rebellion in the territory of the Liao State, it was also the tribe that plundered the most places in the Liao State.

But the gold, silver, money, cattle, sheep and horses they plundered at the beginning were all taken away by the prisoners who returned to Xingqing Mansion and other places.

The head of the Tuoba Department thought about leaving those gold, silver, jewelry, cattle, sheep and horses behind, but after he made a slight move, he was almost beaten by those prisoners who were in a hurry to return to the Great Song Dynasty.

He only sent people to rob the money of a squad of prisoners who had robbed in the territory of Liao, but it aroused the dissatisfaction of all the prisoners who were in a hurry to return to the Great Song Dynasty.

Hundreds of thousands of people pressed him and his men to the ground and rubbed them again, not only taking back their own money, but also taking their gold, silver, jewelry, cattle, sheep and horses clean.

Then one by one, they rode their horses and happily returned to the Great Song Dynasty.

After suffering a big loss, the leaders of the Tuoba tribe now do not even dare to go to the western section of the northwest road of the Liao Kingdom and the southwest road that has been returned to the Song Dynasty.

Because those prisoners who returned to the Song Dynasty from Liao are now grazing cattle in the western section of the Northwest Road and the Southwest Road.

The leaders of the Tuoba tribe did not dare to provoke them.

Because although the Song people of heaven killed them were recalled, they did not cancel the damn military merit system.

It would be good if those prisoners didn't kill the western section of the Northwest Road and cut off his head to exchange for military merits, how dare he provoke others.

That group of guys tasted the sweetness of the military merit system, how did they all look like dead soldiers.

It's not like words.

Nowadays, the western section of the Northwest Road and the Southwest Road of the Liao Kingdom have nominally not been completely returned to the Great Song Dynasty.

But no one in Liao dared to go to the western section of the northwest road and the southwest road of Liao to shout, 'This place is the territory of my Liao country'.

Whoever dares to shout will die.

The first stab to you is likely to be a very ordinary-looking sheep herding baby on the ground.

The head of the Tuoba tribe couldn't afford to provoke those murderers, so he could only bully and bully the Liao people in the eastern section of the northwest road of Liaoguo.

Of course, compared to the Wulie Division, the Ayan Division, the Jurchen Division, and the Tuoba Division.

The Immortal Sect is a complete outlier.

The Immortal Sect was the name given to them by Kou Ji because they did not have a name in the territory of the Liao Kingdom.

They are a force made up of countless stragglers and civilians.

The leader is a sage of a tribe in the Liao Kingdom, who claims to have received the revelation of the Immortal Heaven and is ready to lead the Liao people to fight for a new paradise in the chaotic world.

Under the encouragement of him and his people, many believed.

Then follow them to shout the slogan of being the master of the Liao people, and implement the three-light policy in Liao.

The forces such as the Wulie Tribes still have their own fixed territory, and the Immortal Sect does not have a fixed territory at all.

They are like a group of bandits, a group of locusts, who have no fixed place, burning and looting everywhere.

Now the biggest headache for Yelu Sect is them.

Because they are mainly active on the north and south sides of Shangjing.

Yeluzong really wanted to quell the rebellion in the Liao State, and he couldn't get around them.

The remaining four are listed as the New Khitan Nine Tribes, and almost all of them developed from the original Liao tribes.

One of them is still a branch of the original Khitan Eight Tribes.

After getting this series of news, Kou Ji showed a rare smile, "I thought that these murderers would be chaotic for a long time before they could compete for the Gu King, but I didn't expect to compete for the Gu King so quickly.

The situation is beginning to become clearer.

Our danger was cut in half in an instant.

The biggest headache now should be Yelu Zongzhen. ”

If Yelu Zong really wants to regain power and quell the rebellion of the Liao State, he must gnaw these hard bones.

Since it is a hard bone, it is destined to be difficult to gnaw.
